I've been hearing that the new generation of BtVS watchers immediately take a dislike to Xander instead of growing to hate him like the original BtVS watchers did.

Lately I've stopped even giving the Scoobies credit for giving Buffy that ounce of normalcy. I mean, she could've had best friends like Wallace from Veronica Mars and Christina & Alex from Grey's Anatomy.

S7 it was really hard for me to like the whole lot of them. But I have a soft spot for them, except Xander, and could never really hate them.

I could never have a soft spot for Willow after s6. Or Giles after s7. Or Faith after s4. Or Anya after s7.

Buffy, you're doing great, sweetie. lol

Xander's "kick his ass" lie is the only thing that comes even close to the unforgivable evil things that Faith & Willow have done.

I find that male viewers tend to like Xander a lot more than female viewers. When I listen to male run BTVS podcasts they always love and praise Xander.

The girls call him out for his ****.

Props to you to actually being able to listen to that. I would get so irritated

LMAO I do get irritated. I've dropped a few podcasts because the men running them were triggering me In all fairness, there was also one I was listening to where the girl was sexist and making ignorant statements.

One guy called Cordelia "quite the little s l u t" in Prophecy Girl just because she was dating different men in S1. My rage shot through the roof.

Buffering is the best podcast I've found. The girls running it are great. They call out the stuff that has problems while still being able to love and appreciate the show.
